Only assumption I is implicit
- B.
Only assumption II is implicit
- C.

Explanation
Assumption I contains 'only', which is an extreme claim not presupposed by the government's action. Assumption II is implicit because when relocating a industry/business, the government/employers assume that workers will be able to travel/commute to the new location for operation to continue.
